Most amazing set. I think I've asked this from you earlier also, but then again, how long did this session take. Or if these are compiled from different sessions,then what does a typical session looks like in the time required and amount of walking required.
Your posts tempts me to take up birding, just trying to find out if I have the patience and stamina.

Thanks much!
Had a day and half to myself.
A combination of going for some action shots and the bursts - filled 70+ GB
Spent pretty much the whole day on day 1. The winged beauties kept the energy going.

Birding is a great genre to take up - mornings (better hours considering they're actively feeding) and late evenings work great
